I will answer you the way that I would answer him:

No sh-t Sherlock!

Is this definitive proof? Of course not.

But do you really doubt that there were people who saw those ads, and fake news stories and were influenced by them?

Most of those people would have probably voted the same way anyway, but it would be disingenuous of any person capable of reasoned thought to claim that they had no effect at all.

Btw, he tweets anti-Christmas garbage pretty much every Dec. 25.

First of all Joshy, anyone calling Neil deGrasse Tyson a pseudo-intellectual makes themselves look like an uninformed fool.

As for the "Thank you" ad running on there network: they desperately need money to keep the lights on.

you clearly are either repeating bs your heard from trumpers or don't know the first thing about CNN...

CNN made strong profits the last couple of years, of course coming off 2016 is going to be a tough comparison for all news outlets. but they are rocking it...
why not look it up. Qs are printed for investors to peruse. Read a couple of Quarterly reports. Accounting firms stake their reputations on those numbers and Board Members their freedom....
do you understand Hawaiian? do ya? CNN is making super solid bank. google it yourself and what you will find is that they are very happy with CNN's performance...

Seems that you don't. CNN isn't an independent company. It's a division of Time Warner. If it wasn't due to forced cable subs, CNN wouldn't exist. Their viewership is dismal.

I never said false I said biased they ALL are like this. They will give you THIER version of the truth and put their spin on it, just as any other news source will do. Faux news LOVES to tell people that if your against their party your anti-American, etc.

waldo, cop on to yourself, Time breaks out CNN's numbers everyone knows who CNN it is not a state secret NONE of the big Cable news stations are independents.

just google CNN profits 2015 2016 2017 and learn a little. It is tiresome having to correct your corrections endlessly maybe you could spend 1 minute researching before posting.
